Um, updates...
Congratulations to Hogan who won TTG's first mini contest! He will be receiving some artwork from Michelle! Stay tuned, there will be a new contest coming up in about 2 weeks. If you'd like to know when the contest is announced, join us on Facebook @ http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=156213498638, Twitter @ http://twitter.com/#!/ttgcomic or our e-mail distribution list at Yahoo Groups @ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ttg_comic/ to get the word when the next contest is announced.
Michelle was a little behind schedule in March due to some work and family things that came up. And with page 23 being a bit longer than any page to date, it took her a just a bit longer than anticipated to get it done, but hopefully it's worth the wait ;) The next page is well underway and should be ready to go at the end of May! Poor, poor Aroni... hope your insurance is paid up, buddy, 'cause you're going to need it!
In webcomic news... even though Matt's other comics, Tales of Pylea and ToP: Crux (http://talesofpylea.com) are currently under a mini hiatus, you might still want to check in on things there soon. Matt and Humbug are well underway with another project that is CONSIDERABLY different from anything you've likely read prior to this. Also, Matt has found a fairly new webcomic that he's added to his reading list, and we will be adding it to our comic list as soon as the comic creator gets us a thumbnail. If you've ever had a child, ever have considered having a child, or are just curious to know what it's like to father a child, Christopher (http://christophercomic.com/) will give you a birds-eye view into the creator's life. It's an autobiographical comic, following the young married couple as they first learn they're pregnant, to recently announcing and then adjusting to life with the newest member of their family. It's also one Matt follows quite faithfully, and highly recommends.
See ya next time! :DSun, 01 May 2011 22:00:00 -0700http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Tales_of_the_Traveling_Gnome/5330669/Chapter Two, page 22http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Tales_of_the_Traveling_Gnome/5310883/Recent Updates :: Feb 6th, 2011

* Matt and Michelle peek out from beneath their respective mountains of work * Ah yes, we are back! Sorry about the delays, both artist and writer have been absolutely sWAMPED with work-related events. We're both still in the middle of massive projects, so the next update is planned for the end of March.
Meanwhile, Michelle has been sponsoring a 'Fanart for a Spider Forest Member' since November. She's had a lot of fun reading and drawing characters from other Spider Forest comics, and has posted both her gift art to others and gift art received (or will once we get a handle on some HTML issues... Matt would like to point out that he's the writer, and has a HORRID grasp of HTML, which Michelle has only just realized).
Finally, the dragon-artists.com/ttg site will no longer be updated, and in fact will be disappearing at some point. Michelle decided not to renew the site in light of the fact that she's had no time to manage it and that TTG has become her primary focus over her 'other artwork'.
See ya next time! :DSat, 05 Feb 2011 22:00:00 -0800http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Tales_of_the_Traveling_Gnome/5310883/Chapter Two, page 21, attempt #2http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Tales_of_the_Traveling_Gnome/5287671/Recent Updates :: Nov 1st, 2010 (Well, officially, anyway. DD wouldn't show the page, so we're trying this again!)

Wow, a new Duck! That won't... let... me... UPDATE! GAH!!!
November 1st? *blinks* Um... holy crap, where'd the YEAR go?!? Well, as you might have noticed, the prior month's update was delayed... Life has been EXTREMELY busy for the both of us. Michelle has been completing some work-related training during non-work hours that will continue until the end of the year, and Matt has seen not one, not two, but THREE total system meltdowns where he work. Incidentally, did you know that lightning strikes are very, very bad for computer systems, especially if they receive a DIRECT hit? Now you know.
On that note, given Michelle's class schedule, plus, given the holiday season arriving, etc etc... updates might be delayed during the coming months. Michelle will strive to get the November and December pages done as close to on-time as she can, but updates will have to be on a "when it's ready" basis until after January.
See ya next time! :DWed, 03 Nov 2010 22:00:00 -0700http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Tales_of_the_Traveling_Gnome/5287671/Chapter Two, Page 20http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Tales_of_the_Traveling_Gnome/5271481/Recent Updates :: Sept 2nd, 2010

This month's delay in the page is thanks to SOME unnamed person introducing Michelle to Borderlands.
... No, I didn't do it! Stop giving me that look. :p Much fun and carnage was had by all, but it led to the page to be delayed a couple of days. No worries!
Today's comic really only needs one major caption change. "Please pass the mustard." Om nom nom...

One day late, though it might have been updated last night if Old Man Matt didn't have to go to bed once the sun goes down. In his defense, though, his place of employment got hit by lightning on Wednesday last week, and he spent the rest of the week trying to fix a massive amount of damage, so he was rather tired.
On the same subject, did you know that surge protectors don't actually help all that much when hit with a direct strike of lightning? Mmm, melted plastic and metal smells GOOD! *cough* Gak!
Today's page hurt to draw. Not literally, but ouch... just... ouch. Go read it, you'll see what we're talking about.
See ya at the end of the month!!Sat, 31 Jul 2010 22:00:00 -0700http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Tales_of_the_Traveling_Gnome/5261762/
